Photographers

Photographing for Foundwaves
If there’s a worthy show happening in Boston or the San Francisco Bay area on the independent scene, we want to cover it. We’re always on the lookout for talented photographers who are passionate about live music and can help Foundwaves become the best place to find high-quality concert photography. Check out some of our recent concert photography posts.
Prior experience photographing bands is not necessary to contribute to Foundwaves. We prioritize creativity, a good eye, punctuality, and the ability to shoot in many different lighting situations, preferably without flash. There isn’t any monetary compensation, but we will make sure to credit and link to your site, and the free concert admission doesn’t hurt either. And since Foundwaves is growing quickly and will be expanding to other cities soon, we anticipate many other opportunities arising in the future. For example we are hoping to put together a book of concert photography from the site eventually.
Although the work can be done remotely, that doesn’t mean we don’t want to meet you. We’re starting to put on Foundwaves concerts at local clubs and will have pre-show meet-ups for our contributors. Also, we’ll occasionally be hosting special invitation-only Foundwaves events like exclusive concerts and video shoots that all of our contributors can attend.
